TNGG160402 TH10 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular 60° indexable insert by Tungaloy

TNGG160402 TH10 Tungaloy is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert for precision turning, designed for external and internal operations where low cutting forces and clean surface finish are required.

• ISO‑standard triangular turning insert, 60°
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for non‑ferrous
• Dual‑sided chipbreaker for stable cutting
• Central cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Consistent machining with a sharp, uncoated grade

The TNGG160402 TH10 Tungaloy insert is manufactured from cemented carbide and supplied in an uncoated form to deliver low cutting forces and a clean surface finish when machining non‑ferrous materials. An uncoated specification reduces built‑up edge on soft alloys and promotes predictable flank wear, which translates to fewer interruptions for tool changes and improved process stability. The graded composition of TH10 is optimised for versatile use in general turning where sharp cutting edges and smooth chip flow are priorities.

Secure seat and predictable edge behaviour for reliable cuts

The triangular geometry with a nominal 60° included angle, a 0.2 mm corner radius and a cylindrical central hole ensures stable positioning and repeatable indexing in compatible holders. The plate thickness of 4.76 mm contributes to rigidity under cutting loads and helps maintain cutting edge integrity. Compatibility with a holder is determined by form, rake angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; when these parameters match, secure clamping and consistent orientation are achieved, reducing vibration and improving dimensional accuracy.

Practical system integration and application guidance

This ISO‑norm insert is intended for turning tasks, both external and internal, and is typically used with a matching external holder or boring bar together with a shim/clamping set and replacement screws. The double‑sided chipbreaker provides controlled chip formation on both usable sides, aiding chip evacuation and preventing entanglement in long turning operations. Selection of the appropriate chipbreaker and grade should be guided by the workpiece material, machining strategy and machine stability to maximise tool life and surface quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TNGG160402 TH10 insert is intended primarily for non‑ferrous materials; the TH10 grade supports low cutting forces and a clean finish when machining aluminium alloys and similar workpiece materials.

How is the insert secured in the holder?
The triangular plate uses a cylindrical central hole for clamping; when mounted in a compatible holder with matching form and tolerance, the insert is held securely for stable turning operations.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The triangular geometry provides multiple usable sides; the double‑sided chipbreaker enables indexing of the cutting edges to extend tool life under proper clamping and handling.

Which system components are required to use the insert?
A complete setup includes an ISO‑compatible insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamping set and replacement screws to ensure correct seating and repeatable performance.
